American military women were auxiliaries in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. They were not authorized to be combatants and were part of the WACs, WAVEs, and WAFs. Equal employment came after the Viet War when the WACs/WAVEs/etc. were disbanded and the all volunteer military came into being.
American military females have fought in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, and other US Military operations. But WWI, WWII, Korea and the Vietnam Wars were strictly fought by men.
